Springs Expert is in development, so these are the questions asked before a first release. If something here does not answer yours, write tosupport@springsexpert.com.

Frequently asked

When will Springs Expert be released?

No date has been set. The first version will be published once all three spring types have been tested in SOLIDWORKS; until then this site describes development code.

What will it cost?

The price will be published with the first version. The licence terms are already decided.

Can I try it now?

No. There is no installer and no add-in window yet. Today the code runs from a test harness. See what it does not do.

Which springs will it make?

Compression, extension and torsion springs in version 1. Disc, conical, wave, constant-force and spiral springs are out of scope for version 1. See measurements and plans.

Which SOLIDWORKS versions will it support?

Only versions it has been tested on. The list will be published with the first release. See system requirements.

Will it calculate fatigue?

Not today. For extension springs under dynamic load it will not be offered: EN 13906-2 has no fatigue diagram for them. See what it does not do.

Can I use the generated parts for manufacturing?

Inspect every model before you use it for manufacturing. Checking the geometry against your requirements remains your responsibility.

Who publishes Springs Expert?

Minos Makina Otomasyon San. Tic. A.Ş., a machine builder in İzmir, Türkiye. See publisher details.
